Child rapist agrees to castration
LOUISIANA - A man who admitted raping two young girls has agreed to
be castrated to avoid serving a life prison sentence.
Keith Raymond Fremin, 42, accepted a 25-year sentence without
parole for molesting two sisters, who were aged 11 and 13 at the
time of the attacks in 1999.
Judge Donald Fendlason said he would revoke the lighter sentence if
Fremin does not undergo the surgery by Aug 18.
The victims, now 17 and 19, were in court Tuesday and agreed to the
plea deal. -- AP
